As we approach Veterans Day, I would like to remind your readers that this year marks the 100th anniversary of World War I, in which over 30 Hamilton County soldiers lost their lives. Their names are inscribed on the Veterans Memorial on the Hamilton County Courthouse grounds.Friday, November 10, 2017

My eighty-four-year old mom moved from her home into assisted living. We needed help with the expenses involved in her daily care. Since my father served in the Army for many decades, we investigated Aid and Assistance benefits. Over and over, we had to supply various pieces of paperwork that we had already sent. Our records were misplaced within the Veteran Assistance systems. Paperwork bounced back and forth between several cities, and finally we turned to Senator Todd Young's office for hope.Friday, October 27, 2017

As a member of the federal community who served our country for years, I am deeply concerned that my hard-earned benefits will be cut to offset proposed tax policy changes. I ask my representative and senators to oppose such cuts to the federal community.Wednesday, October 25, 2017

I believe the second amendment needs to be evaluated not replaced. At the time the second amendment was authored our country was 90 percent wilderness, the most sophisticated weapon was a single shot muzzleloader. This was a smooth-barreled weapon, no rifling, that you could not hit anything with at a distance of 20 yards. We also thought the British might return.Wednesday, October 18, 2017

I guess as a voter and taxpayer I should not be surprised by this proposed fairy tale called a 2018 budget as was introduced recently on 1st reading to the city council.

Am I the only concerned taxpayer who has many questions regarding the "Shell" game being offered as a budget for Noblesville in 2018? The discussion in the October 13th Reporter presented by the hired Controller Spalding / city employee and mayor designate was not acceptable.Wednesday, October 18, 2017
